an 8 hour shift that started at 4:00 with my commute

I am not complaining. I am making good money and trying to provide for myself. I just gotta tell you that 4:00 am is really early in the morning.
Last night my roommates blessed my world by calling me as I was driving home from work.
them~Where you at?
me~I'm headed home.
them~Turn around, we came to visit you.
me~I have to open tomorrow.
them~come on, we are just going to have a beer.
my thoughts(a beer? sounds nice. A beer with my roommates? Pure delight!)Ok, I'll be there in like 5.

I got to introduce them to my co-workers and some regulars. It was all in all such a wonderful surprise. The funny thing is that I had just said, God I need a comforting word from you. And bang. NOW hold your panties...I am not into ask and you shall receive, but I do believe God hears us and provides for us in times where we may turn towards something not so good for us. It could be the thinking that you are all alone in this cold world, or calling someone that's not going to lift you up but harm your soul. I thanked God for the call cause you know what...I think he cares that much. I really do. The season of spring is a time for planting and fertilizing. I am reading wonderful books like Changes that Heal and Howard Thurman's book on Disciplines of the Spirit. Novels like Faithful Travelers. And let us not leave out conversations with people such as Katelynn or , Nick or , megan or Viv or H my ment
We'll see if My HTML skills are paying off at all right now. SO on to the plant some more. And we'll see if love, truth, grave and time shall bring about a harvest that is plentiful. I want my life to enrich the lives of others.
